RE: The 'Fake News' Fallacy Used by the Media Monopoly
Citing each other is far too pervasive in our society; it happens in the news outlets as well in the scientific realm as well. People will just cite each other ad nauseum. I read an article a while back where they discovered a selection of papers were just blindly citing others because of the titles or the abstracts and not even reading the actual content. Citing to spread a false net of being correct is definitely troubling.
Yeah, that bad when even the scientific ppl are doing it, then the news picks up on such "research" to repeat it.
